What does it mean to “diversify” your portfolio?

Business
1 answer:
Darya [45]2 years ago

Answer:

C. Spreading risk by investing your money in a variety of funds and investment options.

Explanation:

To “diversify” a portfolio is to invest in a variety of assets as opposed to focusing on one type of asset. To diversify is to invest in different classes of assets to minimize the risks associated with investing.

Diversification minimizes risk by spreading it in the different classes of assets. Should returns from one class of assets be unfavorable, the losses incurred will be neutralized by positive returns from the other assets.
